Get out of my way!

Out!

That was a rather violent play from Ogawa,

but Miyuki stopped him with his body!

Seiko falls just short of scoring!

You're so stupid.

Well, but...

...I understood your intent.

You really wanted to win.

We all feel the same way.

Let's go into extra innings.

You're stupid, but you're a baseball prodigy.

Come on, Tsune!

Meiji Jingu Baseball Stadium

Strike! Batter out!

Yeah!

That's three outs!

Seido can't do anything against Ogawa in the last inning.

Seiko Seido

The game's tied after nine innings,

and we go into extra innings.

Seiko Seido

The World Beyond

Don't make the game so long.

Seiko starts from the second batter.

That means their cleanup will bat.

Are the extra innings advantageous to Seido batting in the bottom?

Ogawa-kun's been pitching better every inning.

So Seiko has the momentum.

Nagata-kun hit a home run in his last at-bat.

Seido needs to stop him.

Sawamura.

Do everything you can to get the first batter out.

With my life!

And Kawakami.

Even if there are no runners,

you're pitching against their cleanup.

Be prepared.

Yes, sir!

This is my last inning.

We have to go all out as a team.

Batting in the bottom isn't an advantage!

We have to defend first!

Yes, sir!

Play like this is the last inning!

Don't lose, guys!

Come on, Sawamura!

This inning is key!

You've got this, Sawamura-kun!

Miyuki.

It's up to you to call the game.

Be annoying, Yamashita!

Let's go!

I'm not playing for myself.

I have to do my best for the team!

You've got him cornered!

Nice, Sawamura!

Keep going!

Out!

Yeah!

One out off the first batter.

Yeah!

There you go, Sawamura!

Nice pitch!

Kojima has hit three for three today.

Can he get on base and set up for Nagata?

I managed to react to the change-up last time,

but I don't know if I can do it again.

I won't wait. I'll just go for his fastball.

Strike!

F-From the first pitch?

This catcher...

Left!

Let's go!

Aso catches the fly for a second out.

Nice job there!

Damn.

Even if I jam him, it still goes so far.

Seido High School has announced a change in players.

Replacing Sawamura-kun as pitcher is Kawakami-kun.

Batting sixth and pitcher, Kawakami-kun.

Nice pitch, Sawamura.

You got the two outs.

It's all in your hands now.

I'll leave my energy here.

Their right-handed sidearm?

He hasn't been pitching lately.

They're switching now?

That seems kind of rash.

Nice pitching, Sawamura!

Well pitched!

Oh, please!

I can pitch fifteen or even twenty innings.

We won't let you.

The final's tomorrow.

You're pitching so well today.

We'll score for you.

Yeah!

We'll show you, Tsune!

We're gonna win!

He swings from the first pitch.

Watch the height of your pitches.

Though you already knew that.

Two more wins...

...until nationals.

We'll win...

...and take the coach...

...to nationals.

It's the top of the tenth with two outs and no runners for Seiko,

Their cleanup, Nagata, is at bat, who is responsible for tying the game.

On the mound, Seido has put out their third pitcher, Kawakami.

Let's watch his first pitch.

Strike!

He misses a slider to the outside!

Nice, Nori!

Good pitch!

We're lucky he swung for that.

The arm swing was good, and so was the pitch.

Second pitch.

And this one's a ball.

The pitcher looks scared!

Nagata, get it!

Come on now, Nagata!

He switched Sawamura out?

If they can get this batter out, they might stop Seiko's momentum.

However...

Foul!

Nagassan, a big one, please!

Come on, Nagata!

He stepped in for that?

Nice, Kawakami!

He's been pitching to the outside.

He looks pretty confident, and his pitches look strong.

Kawakami's pitching sinkers again.

So they've been setting up for the sinker?

If he can actually pitch it.

Give me the pitch to the inside.

An inside pitch?

Nori-senpai!

He's cornered!

Get aggressive!

Seriously, Miyuki?

You can do it, can't you?

Seriously?

Why is he smiling?

It's not just about wanting to be better than the two first-years.

We're here for you, Nori!

Two outs!

Take him down, buddy!

Let's do it!

Watching all the second-years play really motivated me.

But right now, it's more than that.

I just want this for myself.

I've waited far too long...

...for a thrill...

...like this.

Inside!

A slider to the inside?

Strike!

Batter out!

Yeah!

Nagata couldn't even react!

He goes down looking!

A good switch from Sawamura to Kawakami!

Seiko went down three for three in the top of the tenth!

We didn't need to use the sinker in such a tense situation.

So I made him throw the slider he has a lot of confidence in.

It was the perfect slider in terms of control and break.

Nori-san!

I got a pitch that far exceeded what I asked for.

There's no better experience as a catcher.

Seiko Seido

Come on! This is our chance!

It's our turn now!

Let's go, Kominato!

Kominato. He's been pitching a lot to the inside.

You could go for it.

Would you like some amino acids?

Nice, cold amino acids!

How thoughtful.

Chug it down!

It's about time you played like a cleanup.

By the way, have you cooled down?

Not yet!

Do it.

You're sweating a lot.

Am I?

Sawamura, get me a towel.

Yes, sir!

Well, I'm getting a little restless.

I feel bad for our pitchers that we haven't scored.

Seiko Seido

All to the outside?

As long as I'm pitching,

you won't score.

Take this!

An inside now?

Out!

Yeah!

Seiko Seido

Ogawa's still looking strong in the tenth inning.

The next batter's the catcher and cleanup,

Miyuki, who hit an RBI in the first inning.

They've changed their pattern this inning.

One out and no runners.

They've been very obviously avoiding him, but...

He's a clutch batter and can hit long.

He's the scariest batter on the team.

It's okay to walk him after pitching aggressively.

Let's follow through until the end, Tsune.

No one's on base,

so I don't see why we need to be so scared.

Ogawa winds up for the first pitch.

A ball to the outside!

He's starting with an outside pitch.

Second pitch!

Strike!

Low and away into the corner!

It's a strike!

Nice, Tsune!

Nice pitch!

The count's 1-1.

He didn't react to the outside pitch.

Come on, Miyuki!

You've got this!

Let's go!

Third pitch!

Ball!

A screwball to the foot and no swing!

The count is 2-1!

He hasn't swung yet.

Is he waiting for an easy pitch?

The pitcher isn't throwing many strikes, either.

That was close.

To the inside!

He's pitching to the edges, but they're balls.

He acts frustrated,

but they're avoiding the fight against Miyuki.

They can walk Miyuki and fight with the next batter.

That's what they think.

Bring it on.

I'll exceed your expectations.

Nice job!

You have good eyes!

But remember this, Miyuki-senpai!

If you don't swing, you won't hit!

You're sweating a lot.

Let's go for the next pitch!

He's not reacting well.

Could he have been hurt in the play earlier?

He's not showing any signs of swinging.

Do we really need to be so scared of him?

Masu-san, I don't like just running away.

Am I not good enough to pitch against him?

Masu-san!

Don't get cocky, stupid.

But if you say so,

give me your best pitch right here.

If we win today, we have the final tomorrow.

If he can gain confidence now,

he can pitch better tomorrow.

Come on, Tsune!

Get him!

Don't lose!

An inside into his chest.

I'll give him a good one.

I'll never be able to forget the defeat in the summer.

Our pitchers...

...improved drastically after experiencing the depressing defeat.

Then this time, we have to win.

There's something...

...you can only find...

...at nationals.

I want to take them there.

I-It's gone.

That's the game!

In the bottom of the tenth,

the captain and cleanup puts an end to the game with his swing!

I feel bad for our pitchers that we haven't scored.

The end was so sudden.

Seiko looks a little confused.

Ogawa pitched so well this game,

but one pitch ends the game.

They did it!

They did!

Seiko Seido

Seiko tied the game in the second half,

but Seido managed to take back their lead!

Properly!

They're back in the final once more!

Good game!
